Important message from the Mayor on the upcoming MUA sale

You will benefit by voting ‘YES’ to an important municipal question on the ballot requiring voter approval – the MUA sale. The MUA (which provides water & sewer services to about 1,700 WM homes) is facing imminent bankruptcy & is no longer able to continue its operations, so the sale is imperative at this time.

ALL residents will benefit from the sale of the MUA to SUEZ, which will:

guaranteed infrastructure improvements ($30 million within 5 years & an additional $40 million over the next 15 years);

safe, reliable drinking water;

sewer system functionality & compliance;

rate stabilization;

24/7 customer service & enhanced customer satisfaction;

technical & managerial expertise from leading industry professionals;

economies of scale, with nearly 1 million SUEZ customers in northern NJ (7.3 million in North America).

This sale is truly the only solution to the product delivery issues, customer service deficiencies, economic burdens & environmental plights of the MUA throughout its 53-year history. There are zero downsides to our community & its residents. Whether you’re an MUA user, existing SUEZ customer, or have a private well/septic, you’ll benefit from the MUA sale. Please vote ‘YES’ on Nov. 7th for the MUA sale.
